The thesis can be divided into two chapters: synthesis and application. The first chapter presents the basis of synthesis. Generally, electronic-deficient aromatic molecules require activation before reacting with metal reagents and then can go coupling reaction. Our lab has developed a new bipyridine coupling method without pre-functionalization of pyridines to the corresponding activated halide or metal forms or using of transition metal catalysts. This new method is quite efficient and advantageous for environmental protection.
In second chapter, we synthesized 3,3¡¦-dihydroxy-2,2¡¦-bipyridine -based molecules and the functional groups were modified to investigate its liquid crystal properties. According to analyzing data of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), polarized optical microscope (POM) and powder x-ray diffraction (XRD), we found that a-3 may possess cubic mesophaes with Im3m symmetry, and a series of d-1~d-3 compounds exhibit mesophase and may be further identified as smectic phase.
